- Last week the @AP highlighted the investigation I chaired at the Permanent Subcmte on Investigations on the lack of transparency & reciprocity in how American colleges & universities oversee Chinese Confucius Institutes. — PolitiTweet.org

I urge my #Senate colleagues to pass our bill soon so we can strengthen our country’s cyber defenses. https://t.co/2g0i7IrdP1 — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

I’m pleased the #House passed companion legislation to my bipartisan Cyber Hunt & Incident Response Teams Act that will strengthen our federal response efforts in the event of a cyberattack. — PolitiTweet.org

I have urged @POTUS to approve to @GovMikeDewine’s Major Disaster Declaration & expedite relief funding. https://t.co/pJpg4mtjYg — PolitiTweet.org

I traveled to #Dayton the morning after the tornadoes touched down to see firsthand the damage. I was back in Dayton on Friday where I got a briefing on the clean up progress. Some families are having to rebuild their lives from scratch. — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

#Job creation & wage growth in the US has surpassed the expectations of economists & that’s good news but we can do better. On the @SenateFloor, I outlined how my #JOBSAct, #SecondChanceAct, & combating the #opioid & meth crisis will help get more people into the workforce. — PolitiTweet.org

Today, on #FathersDay, I miss my dad, Bill. He was a World War II Veteran, a small business person and a loving father. His integrity and midwestern values continue to inspire me every day. https://t.co/JJFQwK7DLq — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

To my fellow dads, I hope you have an enjoyable #FathersDay. Being a dad to my 3 kids is my greatest joy in life. I’m proud of them and feel blessed to be their father. Happy #FathersDay — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

I commend @potus for his decision to mobilize resources across his administration to promote hiring of ex-offenders and give them a second chance. Fits well with my newly reauthorized the Second Chance Act. https://t.co/jUBpb28RLP — PolitiTweet.org

Carbon capture is a common-sense solution that will allow #Ohio to continue to utilize our natural resources while protecting the environment at the same time. My bipartisan legislation is supported by business, energy, & environmental groups alike. Let’s get it passed. — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

Helping families keep in touch w/ incarcerated family members is an important way to help reduce recidivism in #Ohio & across the US. Introduced bipartisan legislation this week to address the problem of unreasonably expensive phone calls in our prisons https://t.co/ksyRVSUqE5 — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

Earlier this week, two key #DHS witnesses made a commitment to me that they will support the Nonprofit Security Grant Programs to ensure these facilities are protected from acts of domestic terrorism. https://t.co/KWojnUHodo — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

I’ve recently introduced bipartisan legislation to make sure that faith-based and nonprofit organizations have the resources they need to protect their congregations & facilities from increasing security and terror threats. — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

Pleased that this legislation includes a number of my priorities from the Protecting Taxpayers Act. There’s much more work to do to modernize & strengthen the #IRS to better serve taxpayers. I look forward to @SenateFinance consideration of additional IRS reform initiatives. — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

The #IRS Reform Package that passed #Congress earlier this week represents the most significant reform to the #IRS in two decades & is an important first step toward restoring full faith in one of our government’s most important agencies. https://t.co/Uwj31hCAiU — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

Yesterday, I was proud to participate in the Grand Opening of OneFifteen, a new nonprofit health care system with a comprehensive recovery program for addicts. I’m working to help collaborative, innovative, evidence-based programs like OneFifteen. https://t.co/RMgQDjFOcp — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

It will give more Americans the tools they need to get one of the millions of skilled jobs open in America. https://t.co/0jRUAwwMef — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

On the @SenateFloor this week I spoke about the need to get Americans currently on the sidelines into the workforce. Part of it is closing the skills gap with more CTE in high school and my #JOBSAct. — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

I fought to include Opportunity Zone tax incentives in #TaxReform and I believe they will make a difference in strengthening the economy in lower-income communities throughout #Ohio #Jobs https://t.co/ejnKLCFbNr — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

Productive meeting today on Opportunity Zones in SW #Ohio. Learned about good projects & discussed the benefits w/ community leaders & investors. #jobs https://t.co/tjWCX7jfsF — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

Great to catch up with so many friends today in SW #Ohio at the @govstrategies lunch to discuss our growing economy and how we can do better by bringing more Americans back into the workforce & addressing the #opioidscrisis. #firstfridaylunch https://t.co/0QNaWTzF4W — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

Honored to join Carol Armstrong to announce that the final stop of #Apollo11’s national tour with Destination Moon: The Apollo 11 Mission will be in #Cincinnati, a place #NeilArmstrong called home. In 2018, I urged the @Smithsonian to bring the exhibit here & I’m proud they did. https://t.co/h8Y7dsZnGW — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

Proud to join community leaders today to announce that @Smithsonian’s traveling exhibition ‘Destination Moon: The Apollo 11 Mission’ has chosen #Cincinnati for its 5th & final stop. Exciting news for the @CincyMuseum Center & we're honored to host this amazing exhibit. https://t.co/bSqTKWfJmZ — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

OneFifteen’s approach to addressing addiction & its grip on our communities is exactly what is needed to help turn the tide of the #opioidepidemic in the #Dayton region and #Ohio. I’ll continue to partner w/ groups like this one to ensure they have the support they need. https://t.co/eHxD4IXHxA — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

I was honored to participate in today’s grand opening of the OneFifteen ecosystem. OneFifteen will provide much-needed wraparound services dedicated to the recovery of those suffering from opioid addiction. https://t.co/YZUYVAfNio — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

In February, we released a report highlighting the lack of transparency on how Chinese-funded Confucius Institutes operate at US schools & lack of full reciprocity for US cultural outreach efforts in #China. Read more here: https://t.co/UbGHQ43C0v — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

When U.S. schools take money from foreign governments, the American people deserve to know about it. Here’s more on this story from the @AP: https://t.co/mOlK4aWIQE — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

After the Permanent Subcmte on Investigations, which I chair, revealed that U.S. schools failed to accurately report funding from foreign govts like #China, I’m pleased to see the Trump admin now holding them accountable. — PolitiTweet.org
